You can install the InfluxDB chart with two different architecture setups: "standalone" or "high-availability", you can use the architecture parameter:

~~~
architecture="standalone"
architecture="high-availability"
~~~

The standalone architecture installs a deployment with one InfluxDB server (it cannot be scaled):

The high availability install a statefulset with N InfluxDB servers and M InfluxDB Relay instances:
